Leaders And Best

I am guessing that game meant something to Allen Robinson because he was low-ranked 3-star out of Detroit that Michigan didn't want. Maybe he wanted to go to Michigan & was never recruited. Because Michigan & PSU were off in 2011 & 2012, that was Allen Robinson's only game versus Michigan during his 3-year career. I could see why that catch and game would have some special meaning to him even if that was a really mediocre Michigan team. A little weird he put Stribling's name on there, but whatev.

Another interesting note is that he never played MSU during his career as PSU was off with MSU 2011-2013; that game was his only career game against an in-state school, and he never got the chance to play a road game back home at Michigan or at MSU.

I am just impressed that people still get up for us despite how bad we have been for almost a decade. I can't imagine what the butthurt & envy will look like from other conference rivals if Michigan actually started winning some games.

That game planted doubts in my mind about Channing Stribling that I still harbor. I know he was a true freshman, but he's one of those kids who just seems to be "almost" good enough to make the play, but rarely actually makes it.

That's so awkward for Stribling lol. Did Robinson really have to tattoo his name on the jersey?? I can't imagine my friends and family knowing that I'm tattooed on another man's body

that's how much I give a phuck that they managed to squeak by a terrible Brady Hoke squad. 

If it's the PSU game I'm thinking of, though, that's when Hoke lost me for good. The fact that I don't know if it's one PSU game or another, though, says how much meaning the game holds in the mind of an average Michigan fan. 

Guy's a legit NFL receiver and he's fixated on a game as meaningless as that?
